No serial console after bootup?

piwwo

Hello. I just bought a PC Engine APU-Board and booted an old pfsense on it from mSATA. The booting went smooth and without problems, I just had to reassign interfaces via serial console.

Then I ran a update to the latest version and after reboot the serial console stops working after bootup, means that I can not enter anything and the screen won't update. Why is that? Is it disabled by default somehow?

Which install type, Nano, full? 32 or 64bit? What version did you upgrade from?

If you go to System > Advanced > Admin Access is the serial console enabled there?

I think it was full install on mSATA disk i386. I will check into the menu if the console is enabled there, maybe it got disabled somehow (although I didn't do it manually, I only made a update with the webGUI. that's why I wondered).
